Its been a long ten year battle. One that I / we thought she would win. Not to be. There's a saying out there that cancer can not cripple love, shatter hope, corrode faith, eat away peace, destroy confidence, kill friendship, shut out memories, silence courage, reduce life, quench the spirit or lessen the power of resurrection. I know one other thing cancer can not do; and thats take away your dignity. My wife went out on her terms, at home surrounded by family and friends and fighting till the very end. Standing by my wife all these years I know thats important. No matter what your fighting, keep ahold of as many of those things mentioned above and dont let go of hope.

She was a strong women. She had to be, being married to me, fighting cancer and losing our daughter almost four years ago. I will miss her deeply. After 27 years together it will hurt along time. I have another hole in my heart. My girls are gone from me but they are together once again. They are whole and at peace. They are one again.

I wont make this a long post, Im too tired. I just wanted you to meet two of the most beautiful souls that I have ever known. My wife and daughter. Sheri and Alyssa

I think its going to be a long cold winter...
